On the 29th of April, we will release Tails 1.0. This will be an important symbolic milestone about 5 years after our [[first public releases|news/version_0.2]].
|
|
|
We want to have a great logo by then to give Tails the visual impact it deserves. The [image](https://tails.net/lib/tails-logo-round.png) and banner we have been using so far don't really do the job anymore...
|
|
|
So we're starting a contest for designers to create a logo for Tails. We have already brainstormed on the idea, and received some great proposals [[!tails_ticket 5797 desc="in the past"]]. Still, we had a hard time making our collective mind on a single proposal, and wanted to give more people a chance.

Requirements
|
|
|
Free licence, compatible with GPL3+.
|
|
|
Source in SVG format.
|
|
|
An image with an approximate 1:1 ratio, like the [onion logo](https://media.torproject.org/image/www-images/onion.jpg).
|
|
|
Plus the same image along with the "Tails" word either:
|
|
|
merged with the image as in the [Tor logo](https://media.torproject.org/image/www-images/tor-logo.jpg);
|
|
|
on the side of the image.
|
|
|
The "Tails" name must be spelled with an uppercase "T" only, and lowercase "ails".
|
|
|
The image should convey the ideas behind Tails: secrecy, privacy, anonymity, mystery, simplicity (Tails is ready-to-use).
|
|
|
The logo has to be a bit serious, but not sad.
|
|
|
Until now we reuse the colors from Tor (green and purple), but this can be changed.
|
|
|
We cannot reuse directly the Tor or Debian logo, but evoking it is ok (use Tor colors, or evoking the Debian swirl).
